He promised his electors in the past election. What was he thinking? Votes? Taxes? Why does he want to create a bigger problem than it already is? The legal age for purchase is going to be 19. Does he not realize children (15+) will be smoking marijuana? It's been impossible to prevent them from smoking cigarettes, even with all the packaging and cigarettes hidden away in stores. They'll be walking around at school 'high'. And what about those developing brains? Medical marijuana is easily accessible for those that need it. Why do we have to create a society of "legal stoners"? Judy Riseborough Owen Sound - --- MAP posted-by: Matt
